Hey #MAGA, How Are Your #Shitcoin Stocks Doing Today?



From CNN:

Pompeo's North Korea meeting went 'as badly as it could have gone'

It began with great expectations, an eagerly-anticipated meeting with a reclusive leader, and a gift bag that included an Elton John CD.

It ended with a scuttled rendezvous, statements declaring disappointment and stalemate.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's overnight visit to Pyongyang last week failed to demonstrate any progress on denuclearization talks, leading one source with knowledge of the discussions to say the White House felt it went "as badly as it could have gone."

"The North Koreans were just messing around, not serious about moving forward," the source told CNN's Michelle Kosinski, adding that Pompeo had been promised a meeting with North Korea's Kim Jong Un, and so not getting that meeting sent a big message.

"By now it's abundantly clear that this approach is a dead end," said Adam Mount, a senior fellow and director of the Defense Posture Project at the Federation of American Scientists, where he covers US nuclear strategy, deterrence and North Korea.

"The White House has essentially tried to shoot for the moon and total disarmament, and it's clear that North Korea is not only not willing to do that, but sees very little reason to take steps in that direction," he told CNN...

At the risk of repeating myself, let's just stipulate that A) this will not make the slightest difference to the reprogrammable meatbags of the Republican base because, B) by next week it will be completely forgotten by them because, C) Spygate/Benghaaaazi/Emails/Seth Rich/!

Behold, a Tip Jar!

Kim was busy visiting a potato farm and couldn't attend. Anyone who believes North Korea is going to relinquish their hard-won ticket to the world stage because Fergus told them to is a moron.
